Front-end hardware control method and system of ultrasonic equipment and ultrasonic equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a front-end hardware control method for ultrasonic equipment. The method comprises the steps of obtaining scanning parameters of front-end hardware after a scanning start instruction is received; generating a periodic scanning time sequence according to the scanning parameters, wherein the scanning time sequence represents alternate working time points of a transmitting chip and a receiving chip and power supply on-off time points of internal devices of the transmitting chip and the receiving chip; controlling alternate work of the transmitting chip and the receiving chip according to the alternate work time points, and controlling power on-off of internal devices of the transmitting chip and the receiving chip according to the power supply on-off time points, wherein the power-on time points of the internal devices of the transmitting chip and the receiving chip are earlier than the working starting time points of the two chips. Visibly, the transmitting chip and the receiving chip are controlled to be powered off under the condition that the transmitting chip and the receiving chip do not work, so that the dynamic power consumption of the front-end hardware can be reduced, and the static power consumption of the front-end hardware can also be reduced. The power consumption reduction effect is further improved. The invention further discloses a front-end hardware control system for the ultrasonic equipment and the ultrasonic equipment. The front-end hardware control system and the ultrasonic equipment have the same beneficial effects as the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ultrasonic diagnosis, in particular to a front-end hardware control method and system of ultrasonic equipment and the ultrasonic equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, ultrasound equipment is widely used in the field of disease diagnosis. Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of an ultrasonic device in the prior art. Ultrasound equipment includes: host computer, keyboard, display and front-end hardware, among which, front-end hardware includes: controller, transmitting chip, receiving chip and ultrasonic transducer. For ultrasound equipment, the number of physical channels of the transmitting chip and the receiving chip is an important indicator to measure the performance of the system. The more the number of physical channels, the higher the system performance and the better the imaging quality of the equipment. However, the power consumption of the front-end ha...

Problems solved by technology

However, although the power consumption of the front-end hardware can be reduced by turning off the clock of the front-end hardware, it can only reduce its dynamic power consumption, but cannot reduce its static power consumption. Still account for a high proportion, resulting in poor power reduction effect
